Drain the water from the soaked cashews and place in a high speed blender. Add 2 c. water and blend until smooth

Add remaining ingredients and blend for another 1-2 minutes until completely smooth.

Pour into glasses and dust with nutmeg

Even though it doesn't have the same exact texture, it is closer to the real deal than I thought it would be, the flavor is there, it tastes FRESH, and it is GOOD! After soaking, it took me about 5 minutes to put together!

Okay, this is seriously AMAZING! Where has this snack been all my life?!? Just when you think you're getting bored with the same ol grapefruit trick, try THIS. Even if you're not bored with it, try it anyway and find a new way toLOVE grapefruit again!

My family LOVES cereal bars with my husband being able to down at least 3 in a sitting.

But after becoming a big label reader, I found myself never really like the ingredients in them even the organic ones have a list on ingredients that don't really need to be in there!

So I kept telling myself I would either find or create a recipe that would help me not have to worry and one that my family could love, indulge in, and enjoy!

Lo and behold I stumbled upon this one right here and I canNOT wait to make it again. Even thinking of switching out the unbleached flour for coconut flour to see if I can clean it up even more!

They are SO GOOD, easy to make, and with SIMPLE INGREDIENTS!! No maltodextrin, red 40, or soy lecithin included!

I had just bought FLAXSEED so instead of going back to the store to buy some flaxseed meal, I through my seeds in the Vitamix and created it in about 10 seconds so go ahead and work with what you've got!

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicon baking mat.

Place flour, flax meal, and baking powder into the bowl of a food processor or blender. Pulse until combined.

In another medium bowl, whisk together the honey, vanilla, egg, and coconut oil or butter. Pulse processor again while pouring in the liquid ingredients to combine. Add milk 1 tablespoon at a time until dough comes together but is not wet.

On a sheet of wax paper roll dough into a 10” x 12” rectangle. You can "cut and paste" pieces of dough to make the rectangle. Cut dough lengthwise into thirds using a sharp knife or pizza cutter. Spoon berry filling in a stripe down the centers of the dough rectangles. About 1/4 cup of filling per strip of dough should be good. Carefully fold one length of the dough over the filling, and then the other, gently pinching to seal. A little water also helps adhere the dough to itself. Sprinkle a little turbindo sugar over the top and gently press in if using.

Transfer dough strips to the prepared cookie sheet, seam side down. Cut each strip into three pieces and place 1” apart. Bake for 15 minutes and cool. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer.

Filling Variations: - I had Fresh, homemade starfruit jelly on hand but if you don't you can use fresh fruit to create your own berry or fruit filling which is what I'll be doing next! 3 cups fresh or frozen organic blueberries (or any berries & fruit!) Juice 1/2 lemon Place berries and lemon juice in a medium saucepan set over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently until berries have broken down and reduced into a thick jam, about 15 minutes. Sweeten to taste with stevia, if desired. Filling should be sweet, as the pastry is not very sweet. Let filling cool. - Peanut butter - chocolate chip: replace fruit filling with peanut butter and sprinkle with mini chocolate chips- Get in the holiday spirit with Pumpkin Pie Filling

Seriously, you and your family will love these!! If not, send them to me and I'll finish them off!! :D What variations will you try?

YES!! This dessert IS as good as it looks! Homemade light cookie crust + cream cheese frosting + any kind of fruit you would like = A fruit pizza that just can't go wrong! It tasted great from the day it was made until a few days after when the cookie crust had a chance to get softer and the fruit flavor infused into the frosting!

In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon and stir to blend.

In another bowl, whisk the sugars with the butter, egg whites, applesauce and vanilla until light and fluffy.

Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients with a spatula in two additions until the batter is very well blended. If the batter looks more “crumbly” than smooth, add just a drop of water at a time (ONLY if needed) until it smooths out. Fold in the white chocolate chips.

Spread the batter onto the baking pan using the back of a measuring cup to smooth evenly.

Bake 14 to 16 minutes, until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Don't over-bake or your bars will be dry. Let it cool completely on wire rack.

Meanwhile, prepare the frosting; in a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla until well-blended.

Cut the bars into 15 large squares (5 cuts by 3 cuts with the knife). Then cut each square in half diagonally to create triangles. Spread the frosting in a thin, even layer over the surface of the cookie, leaving a small margin around the edges. Layer the fresh fruit over the frosting. Store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

I don't know about you but I could DEVOUR bowls of Zuppa Toscana from Olive Garden! Back in the day, I'd eat soup, salad, and breadsticks all day if I could! Which is why I am so glad I stumbled upon this recipe to try out this week! As soon as I saw it, I knew it had to go on the list for dinner!

It's just a 20 minute prep so you can set it and forget it. Can't go wrong with that! Whether it's cold outside or not, this hits the spot!

Crumble sausage and cook over medium-high heat in a skillet on the stove. Add minced onion to the sausage a few minutes into cooking. Once meat is mostly browned, add garlic. Continue cooking until meat is cooked through and no longer pink.

These little beauties came at such a great time! I was having one of those rare days where I just wanted something sweet, but know I can't go overboard or my stomach would make me regret it! My honey thought it would be fun to make some cookies together and I did to so I started my Pinterest search!

I wouldn't take me long to find a common theme of bananas, oatmeal, and chocolate cookies! My stomach was growling so I was thankful that I knew would fit right into my 21 Day Fix Plan! The recipe I decided to use is from Money Saving Mom, but most that you'll find are the same thing. I like to add ingredients based on what flavors I'm in the mood for like coconut, carrots, different dried fruit. The options are endless and all have tasted DELICIOUS! Here is the recipe I use as a base >>>
